As an interesting fact, the term "quillons" isn't really contemporary to medieval swords, but likely first appeared in the late 16th century. The more accurate term is probably "cross-guard", or simply the "cross".

Anyway. You'll find tons of examples throughout this site's features, albums, and on the forum.

I'm headed out for the evening, but here are some quick links with photos:
Spotlight: Oakeshott Type XIV Swords
Spotlight: Oakeshott Type XV Swords
Spotlight: Oakeshott Type XVI Swords
